Click here to sign up. Recently, my husband and I were having a discussion about how my cooking has changed since we got married. I think he was surprised to hear that it had changed, at all. But think about it... would he really know? So how did it change? There are some minor changes, but also a few big ones. One big one is that my husband really does not like bone-in chicken. He'll eat it, but when he does, he definitely prefers white meat. Which is super weird to me because bone-in … [Read more...]

Healthy Recipe Roundup
The Ultimate Healthy Recipe Roundup to help with your weight loss and health resolutions! Is there a time of the year, more than these post-pesach days, when people are more focused on eating healthy and paying more attention to their diets? No, I don't think so either.

Over the holiday, we buy our pesach food. Then when pesach is over and real life starts again, we need to restock. And now, the choice is ours. Do we stuff our pantries with crackers and cookies and all kinds of junk? Or do we load our shelves up … [Read more...]
